My fiancee and I are planning for our Honeymoon March 2006 in Mauritius and we narrowed it to the North Coast coz we found out that is the area with a lively night life. We would love your help in sorting out afew things for us:
1. We will be staying for about 7 nights and our budget is about USD1500 for accomodation. I saw two hotels; Casuarina Hotel and Mont Choisy Coralia Hotel Mauritius are they any good? Are there other choices people would recommend? Rooms with seaviews are what we are looking for

2. We want an area we have access to people and activity. My financee is not big on snorkeling, swimming with dolphins, but loves places with cultural activities, live bands,food, etc What hotel would place us as close to people and Mauiritian culture?

More guidance

Thank you to everybody for their responses. After looking at the recommendations we have added one more hotel to the list Please guides us on the best hotel to choose from in terms of cost, accessibility to different places within a short distance or period of time. If people have links where people have made comments on the hotels or have images of how the rooms look we would really appreciate...Thank you
